"The success of a marriage . . . depends primarily on a husband's ability to make his wife feel valued—and as more than just a mother. It may take two to tango: it requires one person to take responsibility. This is not about being a doormat. Nor is it about work and parenting roles . . . it is about human nature. A wife who knows she is loved and cherished cannot help but reflect love back on her husband." —Harry Benson When his own marriage nearly broke up, Harry Benson decided to take responsibility for his wife's happiness—loving her, caring for her, and understanding her. Putting himself and his work second, he put his wife first—and their marriage thrived. Now the research director at The Marriage Foundation in the United Kingdom, Benson has discovered that research supports his decision—and that happy women make for happy children and happy husbands.
